Building a Record Player Cabinet

I have been thinking about building a record player cabinet for years now but I never had a good idea for the design. This week it finally came to me. This is the perfect combination of Storage, Flip Through Display, Functionality and Design!
This is one of my favorite builds ever-I hope you like it just as much!

That smile at 7:53, when we recognize something is great, perfectly done! Loved it!

[@WesleyTreat]

The clamping jig for the segmented curve is brilliant. I have to remember that trick. And Rilo Kiley always deserves to be up front. 👍

[@the_cheese]

This is an inspired build!! Ageless design; this would be at home in an Art Deco house, a '60s/'70s Modern house, or any contemporary place. Fantastic work, Laura!!

[@laurakampf]

Thanks you!!

[@auralaura9908]

💕☺️

[@jon_little]

I love that flip through design. Brought back memories of flipping through countless records at a record store. I always happen upon records in the store that I didn't know I wanted until I flipped to it in the store. How awesome it is that you now have that feeling at home. Love your work, cheers.

This is a gorgeous piece - love the gentle curve for the speakers and the hidden surprise behind them! You are awesome!

[@laurakampf]

❤️❤️❤️

To all you aspiring KZbin creators out there - THIS is how you make a presentation! No waffling to camera, no shakey handheld phone work, no obligatory 'outages', no - oh, I could go on, but I wont. Not just a stunning piece of furniture (I was wondering about the speakers!) but a perfect video. Thank you Laura.

[@mamaw9634]

So peaceful watching a true artisan at work- as a dump and pour cook- the exact measurements are a mystery and marvel! Laura’s passion and joy come through in the smile!!

[@thomasreiley1658]

Speaker covers fit perfectly . . . Then that look of pride!!!

[@fredyhuapi]

Beautiful design and beautiful designer. Greetings from Patagonia Argentina

[@kemalkotzt2296]

Wow! Mega Teil 💚 Ich hänge seit ein paar Wochen beim Design eines Eigenheims für meinen Plattenspieler fest. Vielen Dank für deine Inspiration! 🙏🏼💖

[@sgsax]

Hard agree that the curved corners and the grilles are my favorite features. Really lovely job on this one. Thanks for sharing!

[@johannes8121]

The first time I see Laura using a calculator^^ Increadible design and nice build!

[@Gitarzan66]

Right on, your video popped up in my feed today. As A carpenter, musician and person who grew up with records I really like this piece you built. Cool shop and tools. I really like your use of tape. The way you made that template was genius. This old fart learned a couple things from you. I subbed and I'm looking forward to checking out your channel.

[@negotiableaffections]

So thats where my old denim jeans went to! Fabulous engineering Laura, and great to see a fellow hifi enthusiast still caring for the great vinyl!

[@tsaemi]

Just a word: WOW!

[@MakerCuisine]

The way you got the bends in the shape was so cool

[@johnbaker7621]

Outstanding design and craftsmanship

[@michelleschry1255]

That glue up must have been epic. Great job.

[@elkoder]

The cabinet, looks beautiful!!!

[@russellmckeithan7087]

I love it I love to see other people interested in records other than me

[@johnwhitley2898]

This is a very cool stereo cabinet! The speaker cubbys are ingenious!!

[@Knallteute]

Hab deinen Kanal gerade entdeckt. Freut mich immer mehr Deutsche Kanäle zu sehen die internationalen Content machen.

[@ifbridges]

WOW! Love. This. So. Much!

[@dschipper10]

Thank you Laura, again 😊

[@oscoto]

This piece took me back 65 years to stereo cabinets and how they were a showcase to the home. Beautiful piece, always a please to watch your videos.

[@TheSteveAS]

Laura, that cabinet is EPIC! The design is everything it needs to be and nothing it doesn't - perfect meld of form and function. You've outdone yourself on this build. BRAVO!!

[@KennethMcGrath]

This design is gorgeous and so practical. I loved the gravity-based clamp that you made to hold the curved pieces during glue-up. Brilliant. Thanks, Laura. Seeing your satisfied smile as you succeed with a project always inspires me. #peace

[@josephu6845]

Another amazing design! I love the trick you used with the tape to get the shape for the speaker cover panel.

[@MakeWithMiles]

I love the design, and the fact that is minimal. It looks even better with all the vinyl; ;)

[@GreenShortzDIY]

Laura, I love your design aesthetic and the joy you always show is us in your builds. Danke, dass du schöne Videos gemacht hast. [Let Comment Dry]

[@ceriedwards3]

I think that might be the most gorgeous piece I have seen you make. But music is a great love of yours so perhaps no wonder. Thank you for sharing

[@laurakampf]

Thank you! Might be my favorite too :)

[@laurencepaq]

This is beautiful. I need and want one!! I love the black bass underneath. By bringing the cabinet higher it puts it in an even more elegant frame! Love the curved corners and hidden speakers. This is my favorite build you have made so far!

[@kjellski]

Wooooonderful design and great construction of the cabinet with unique features! 👌🏼☺️ And as always - crisp cut and chill vibes... As well as the smile - well deserved!

[@p_mouse8676]

Nice project! 👍🏻😎 I personally would have made full sized speakers behind those grills. 🤘

[@sadiqmohamed681]

That is a beautiful piece of furniture and so practical. For most of this build I had no idea what you were doing. I love how you do reveals as you go along, like the curved end pieces, then the template to cut the curve panels, and the hidden JBL's at the end. Very clever.

[@funkyspacecow]

Beautiful work and wonderful video as always. I love how happy you look when you test fit the cloth screens! That's such a great feeling on any project when you see an idea actually work for the first time, best part of making IMO. Thanks for the videos and inspiration!

[@MsSarraceno]

Lindo trabalho! Você tem um ótimo gosto para tudo o que faz! Obrigado pelo conteúdo!

[@reforzar]

As much as I love your videos and builds, I think seeing your face light up when things come together is one of my favorites. Keep building awesome stuff friend. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@jackfallows1893]

You are the coolest person on the internet

[@PN5HR]

Brilliant idea, even better execution! Laura never disappoints! 👏👏👏

[@marcinsykut497]

Wow ! Great project . So many tape tricks ( should say technics ). Beautiful line . Useful as always . Thank you Laura !

[@alsanova]

Nicceeeee!! Great design, simple and minimal. Really like the cut strips curve instead of bending plywood. 👍👍👏👏

[@alexbennett997]

Thanks for putting out excellent content, this one is possibly one of my favourite builds you've done. And thank you for paying attention to the sound. The music on this sounds great and the 4k looks excellent on my TV and 5.1 system!

[@FigmentsMade]

Such a cool design. I love that it's a big smile!

[@laurakampf]

Right? It looks so friendly

[@Byteme34]

Such a beautiful piece.

[@Evolucion7]

[@monrominee]

Possibly my fave project yet! Outstanding

[@carsonokeeffe]

It’s so beautiful. I love how I didn’t know where you were going with it until the end and was pleasantly surprised by the record storage above the speakers.

[@verdun1951]

Beautiful creation

[@Manuel_E.]

Wow....that's all I can say. Well done Laura! Beautiful!

[@raynoladominguez4730]

Turned out great Laura, awesome work! 😍👌🏻👍🏻👊🏻

[@jtijerino3440]

There is not much technical information, but it is a pleasure to see your originality and creativity in your work, these are something different, congratulations.

[@007KrausBean]

Love this build. I like the small speakers hidden in the bottoms while you have records at the top. Throws people for a loop when they hear the music, but see the records. Nice work!

[@janasapu1]

Nice piece of work again, Laura 😻

[@kerchuansoong]

This is my new favorite of your builds!! The sleek art deco design works so well with the colorful collection of well loved records. Probably due to recent events, the hero/nerd sign brought a tear to my eye.

[@5656eric]

Great design. Great camera work too. Congrats.

[@balooarica]

just beautiful

[@davebauerart]

I love the simple elegant design. highlights the real focus, the records!

[@mariellecb1]

Beautiful work! The Festool router and domino joiner make everything so dang crisp!

[@laurakampf]

Yes! As I like to say „professional tools allow me to be an amateur“

[@cheddar2848]

Beautiful work!

[@TheHuizenre]

Excellent!!!! Really like it.

[@labomat]

This is nothing short of art! I really love this

[@AndyBirkeyMaker]

Absolute respect, my friend. Beautiful

[@tomt9543]

Beautiful project! You are a gifted gal! I always love seeing your various workshop tricks also, the fixture you made to hold the beveled sections together while the glue dried was simple but genius! You should do an episode on your “problem-solution” inventions. Thanks for another great vid!

[@MrNathBlack]

Dynamic and inspiring design... Great work with all that festool collection!

[@MultiPJoys]

The design, execution and in combination with the love for records made me almost a bit emotional 💗
